    No, it's not about dementia.

  9. Ah yes, the age-old dilemma: how to save humanity from the perils of #selfies and #TikTok dances 🤳. Apparently, the magic elixir is setting the age limit to 16, because, you know, 15-year-olds are notoriously terrible at using social media responsibly 🙄. Also, remember to enable #JavaScript and cookies—because nothing says "serious proposal" like a broken webpage 🍪.

    > The government is proposing a new law on age limits for social media use. We have no objections to the legal establishment of such an #AgeLimit, but we believe that the proposal on age verification requirements in particular has not been sufficiently examined.
